Guest haynes52 Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Hello, I am having a problem with my spa it is 1500 litres i was unable to put enough chlorine in to maintain a sanitizer level. I was usind lithium chlorinating granules, i wound up putting 1000 Grams in within 3 days and still no residual. i swithced to stabilized dichlor fast disolve tabs, used an entire bottle and no luck i drained the tub and started over i am still not able to maintain a residual for more that a few hours regardless of how much chlorine i put in this is all without any bather usage it is all very strange, i have never had a problem before. the pool store says that i shoulodnt need to put more than one little puck per day in on avergae and it should hold a residual even for 2 days with no use. i have used a shock treatment twice since refilling it and still no joy! today i have put 12 tabs in and a shock, and i fully expect the level to go to zero by night fall and without any use i should alos note that my spa is in good balance and has perfect looking water and has no foaming the only thing i can think of is that there is some bacteria in the pipes that is consuming my sanitizer, but this much???? p.s. i use well water this time 50% softened and 50% very hard any thoughts??
